thank you very much

Ok that thing happened to me also.
I was really not knowing what to do.
but there was nothing to fix or replace.
Just type in mysql <tab> ......
and u will see that mysql is already installed.
u can start off by typeing 'safemysqld &'
and then 'mysql -p' just to see if mysql works........it should mine worked ...otherwise keep us posted.

cheers..

Hi Anna,

It also happened to me. I think mysqld was active and files were open, when you tryed to update MySQL release.

What I did was to force the install. In fact, when I did this, mysqld was closed, files updated and then mysqld restarted.

Try this :

rpm -i --force MySQL-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm

Hope it will help you,

Bye,

GBubani

The command issued was :

rpm -i --force MySQL-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm
